IRENA’s Policy Talks are a series of webinars, providing a forum for energy transition discussions where experiences and best practices in policy design and implementation can be shared to support the efficient deployment of renewable energy, energy efficiency and other energy transition-related technologies and the maximization of the benefits realized.

IRENA, in collaboration with Chad’s Ministry of Water and Energy, is convening a virtual validation workshop to present key findings from Chad’s Energy Transition Assessment (ETA), review strategic actions, and build stakeholder consensus to accelerate the country's renewable energy transition.

The workshop will be organized by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) in cooperation with Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources of Türkiye.

This webinar will focus on addressing the unique challenges and opportunities for SMCs in advancing green hydrogen development through standardized frameworks, supported by collaboration with the EU to harmonize efforts and foster international trade.

This webinar will address the multifaceted challenges of scaling up clean hydrogen production in a water-efficient manner.

IRENA’s second policy talk of 2024, “Post-COP28: Translating pledges into action in the GCC” shared insights on the current progress and opportunities for the energy transition in the region through a moderated panel session with distinguished renewable energy and climate policy experts.

IRENA hosted a series of events at COP27 (6-18 November) highlighting the urgent need to accelerate the energy transition and achieve a climate-safe future in which no one is left behind.

The event served as a launch of the joint IRENA/UN-OHRLLS report “Scaling Up Renewables in LLDCs”.

This joint event by IRENA, GRC and CVF GPG sought to transform commitments into actions by galvanising enabling policy frameworks for global energy transitions across sectors powered by renewables.
